Duke of Montmorency
The French title Duke of Montmorency ( Duc de Montmorency ) was awarded three times, but only the first two times as a pair . The title referred to the place Montmorency until 1689 , then later to the place Montmorency-Beaufort in Champagne .
The first duke was Connétable Anne de Montmorency from 1551 , whose line died out with the beheading of the fourth duke in 1632. The following year the title was passed on to his sister Charlotte-Marguerite de Montmorency , the former mistress of King Henry IV , and her husband Henri II. De Bourbon, prince de Condé .
In October 1689, Henri III changed Jules de Bourbon, prince de Condé , third Duke of Montmorency, the Duchy in Enghien and the title Duke of Enghien (the renaming of the place Montmorency in Enghien did not prevail; today's Enghien-les-Bains , a neighboring town of Montmorency, was not founded until 1850) in order to legitimize the title Enghien, which he also uses but is legally controversial.
A month later, in October 1689, the Duchy of Beaufort was renamed the Duchy of Montmorency, whereby the title returned to the Montmorency family . This line expired in 1862. Since the transfer in 1864 to a nephew of the fifth duke, the title was then carried out in the House of Talleyrand-Périgord . The last Duke of Montmorency died in 1951.
